JUST NOW at the @SenWarren town hall in NASHVILLE: “How can kids help things get better?” ❤️

@MarshaBlackburn & @SenatorHagerty wont do town halls because they can’t face these tough questions. So Senator Warren is.

Justice Dept. Accuses Top Immigration Lawyer of Failing to Follow Orders Erez Reuveni conceded in court that the deportation last month of Kilmar Armando Abrego Garcia, who had a court order allowing him to stay in the United States, should never have taken place.

Unbelievable.

DOJ fired a lawyer for acknowledging that an illegal deportation may in fact have been illegal.

FACT SHEET: Biden-Harris Administration Marks Progress Strengthening America’s Supply Chains | The White House Upon taking office in 2021, President Biden and his Administration immediately got to work addressing the shocks that were roiling global supply chains

Guess what?

Kamala Harris would NOT have enacted Tariffs to destroy the economy

Kamala would have continued what Biden started to strengthen supply chains here in America

ICE detained Julio Noriega, a 54 year-old US citizen who was born in Chicago, for over 10 hours on January 31st.

He was walking around "Berwyn, Illinois, handing out his resume to local businesses."

They didn't show him a warrant.

They didn't give him paperwork.

And he's now suing.

American politics makes a lot more sense when you realize that the GOP is afraid of pissing off the GOP base, and the Dems are afraid of pissing off the GOP base, but neither party is afraid of pissing off the Dem base.

This isn't going to get the attention of Columbia, but it's at least as bad: the University of Maine is having its funding cut off because the governor of Maine dared to challenge Trump.

5 CFR § 2635.702 - Use of public office for private gain.

Staging a Tesla commercial at The White House is not only unethical, it’s a blatant violation of the law.

An employee may not use their public office for their own private gain; for the endorsement of any product, service, or enterprise….

"Elon Musk is coming after Social Security, Medicare, and Medicaid because he thinks that's how "Democrats attract and retain illegal immigrants by essentially paying them to come here and then turning them into voters."

One of my companies informed me they cancelled a $2m conference in Florida. Why ?

They didn’t feel they could pass on the incremental cost of tariffs. So they are cutting expenses.

That’s a city that lost a ton of tourism revenue.

The cost of tariffs isn’t just the cost of the tariff

In just the last 24 hours Musk has:
-called veteran, astronaut and Senator Mark Kelly a “traitor”
-told the Polish defense minister a “be quiet, little man”
-claimed without evidence that Ukraine was behind the Twitter outage
-oh and lost $16.7 billion in net worth

Don’t do drugs kids.
